Using a Handler class to send messages when called by "client"

[Christian Migowski]

Hi Michael,

Your question was not very specific so here is a quite generic answer:
Of course it is possible! When you connect to/are connected from
another system, you get the Netty Channel that represents this
connection (either from connect() or from getChannel() of the Event in
your server). Store the reference of that channel somewhere and use it
to send to the other system anytime you like.


regards,
christian!
